England lost in the aforementioned home EURO final on penalties. Unlike Italy, however, it then made it to the World Cup in Qatar.

So far in the Nations League, England have a bad record, after four games with two points on the account, they are the last. England first lost 0-1 to Hungary, then drew 1-1 in Germany, 0-0 at home to Italy and most recently lost 0-4 at home to Hungary. Today they have to beat Italy to avoid relegation to the second division.

The Italians are not having a good time at all after their triumph at the EC. Firstly, they failed to qualify for the World Cup and are not doing very well in the Nations League either. After four rounds, they only have five points and are third in the standings. First they drew 1-1 with Germany, beat Hungary 2-1, then drew goalless in England and lost heavily 2-5 to Germany.
